Orienteering race 1:28:05 [4] 11.5 km (7:40 / km) +236m 6:57 / km

Certainly an improvement today.
Missed #3 high (narrow but deep gully) [40]
Not enough discipline to stay high leaving #5 so took longer / slower down and up route [90]
Followed elephant track too low to #9 [30]
Switched off to #22 and ended up too high mid leg via marsh and bracken [3m]
Poor bearing missed #24 east [45]
No disasters but consistently slow and not much time made up!

Inauspicious start to the week.
Made a mess of #1 wasting 2mins or so looking far too high but improved through to #5 and had caught Tim Beale 9 mins here.
Unfortunately there was something very wrong at #6 (3m unmapped crag or misplaced control). I never ventured far enough down the slope and lost around 14mins here.
Chased down a punter elite pack by #11 (most of whom had passed me whilst looking for #6); wobbled through to #14 largely together.
Then on way to #15 something seemed wrong so misidentified position as being on green to the north of the line when actually south. So split from Mark Burley preferring to run off the map. Oops. That escapade cost up to 10mins.
Then crawled into the finish jettisoning further time. 30mins faster would have been comfortably possible...
Sure the leg to #6 would be voided but it wasn't. Lots of catching up to do!

Torrential rain in the morning but cleared up nicely for this outing :)
Slog up main track, then a bit of bog trotting, to trig point then found a half decent descent route.

Orienteering race 43:37 [4] 7.78 km (5:36 / km) +183m 5:01 / km
shoes: Karrimor D30
Back from Scotland to be greeted with glorious weather!
Slow to get going but enjoyable mix of terrain.
Missed two controls - wouldn't have managed the first without running in a higher gear but had enough time to get the second - just opted for an easier life towards the end of the race.

Bagged first start but fluffed #4 massively - looking far too high up the slope. There was unmapped felling here and I erroneously deduced that the edge of the felled area tallied with the distinct veg boundary on the map.
Also found some green in the area I was searching in which kind of made sense so explored the bracken for a while before eventually recognising I was too high.
Partially excusable but perhaps not 12mins worth...
Rest of course was a bit better.

Outing at Bogendreip which started off as pleasant as ever but was partially ruined by massive extraction lanes :(
At least it just seemed to be thinning but the massive ruts take something away from the isolation of the place...

shoes: Integrator December 2016
Early start given afternoon rehearsal and evening Proms in the Park concert.
Couple of navigational errors as well as route choice; runnability was quite variable with deep heather and tussocks in places.
#4 Went off line purposefully to utilise path but then too high. Took two relocations from the hill top to find flag [90]
#5 Annoyed with error slightly overshot [30]
#8 Banana trying to locate indistinct path [45]
#15 RR overtook here. Might have attempted to stick with him (briefly) had it not been uphill...
#19 Might have been slightly quicker to use path to north?
#23 Confused by whether crossing fence to north was permitted (no crossing point on descriptions and no red line but crossing marked on leg to #20...) Hence hesitant in descending to path (which was probably the best route anyway as rocky ground was fast) [45]
